June 6: Mark Cantor's 'Jazz Night at the Movies' at the Raven Theater

Over 4,000 clips strong, the incredible film archive of Mark Cantor is a jazz lover’s dream: rare and unseen live footage of greats like Miles Davis, Billie Holiday and Chet Baker abound. But since Cantor’s collection is almost entirely on actual film, chances to see it strung through a projector are rare. This week, Cantor stops by the Healdsburg Jazz Festival to present Jazz Night at the Movies, a selection of his films screened with Cantor’s own funny, insightful commentary—a combination that often turns casual jazz fans into obsessives. Be inspired by jazz legends on Wednesday, June 6, at the Raven Theater. 115 North St., Healdsburg. 7pm. $10. 707.433.4633.
